TT Formation Badges from Bayeux, Normandy
Hello,
Here are two 50th (Northumbrian) Infantry Division formation badges I found at my grandmother's in the late 70s. I was told my grandparents, who lived in Bayeux (Normandy) accommodated British TTs after D-Day and I later found some pictures and letters that confirmed the story.
Hoping that everybody will enjoy my post,
Didier

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
